need to come up with $10,000- student loan question
I got into law school. I need about $10,000 just to live in socal for a full school year. no idea how to come up with this.
I have SHITTY credit. I'm asking my finaid officer to up my stafford loans, but we'll see. so far she's sucked ass.
i'm looking into private loans, but I have nobody to co-sign for me (at least nobody that I know of.)
I really with $10,000 would just fall on my fucking lap. God, that would be awesome.

Re: need to come up with $10,000- student loan question
^^^ new student loans are in dire straights right now due to the failure of 'auction rate bond' auction sales that have traditionally been used to provide the cash that allows gov't agencies to make / guarantee student loans. As a result, these gov't agencies are now forced to pay 10% + interest rates to obtain new student loan money to loan back out to students at 7% or whatever (meaning the gov't is taking a loss). In the absence of a gov't guarantee, a 'private' student loan is being treated by the lending banks just like any other type of unsecured loan ... i.e. the creditworthiness of the borrower determines whether or not a new loan will be approved regardless of the interest rate to be charged. The 'private' student loan banks are doubly gunshy right now because the default rate on 'private' student loans has risen to scary levels since it is possible to go bankrupt on a 'private' student loan.
Congrats on your acceptance, but your timing sucks in regard to obtaining a new student loan. Gypsy probably has the best answer to your dilemma.

Have you tried peer to peer lending???? I know there are a few credible sites. You set up an account, how much you need, what you can/will pay back each month, why you need it & etc...
